Macklemore

I'm not more or less conscious than any other rapper out there.

Reading a piece of poetry with no beat in front of 20 people is way more challenging than rocking for 10,000 people.

You can only watch injustice go on for so long until you're compelled to say something. To speak out against it.

I studied international relations and economics at the University of Virginia. I paid my way by working as a bartender in the summer and at three part-time jobs during the year.

I get my clothes from three sources: Target, thrift shops, and friends. It's simple and it's cheap.

I'm such a bad shopper for myself. I love fashion and all that kind of stuff, but that's sort of the last thing I want to do when I'm done with a film is go shopping. I want to just chill.
